Love is the human condition. Without it, life is devoid of meaning. Thankfully, I have a man whom I love with every fiber of my being. He is my world, and with his son, we will have a glorious, perfect, beautiful life together. He just doesn't know it yet. There are some bumps in the road on my way to him, but all great love stories have hurdles. Romeo and Juliet fought against a familial feud. Elizabeth Bennett and Mr. Darcy had to sort out his views of her family. Noah and Allie face timing and an ever changing world. But I know we'll have it easier. When I come clean, he'll accept me, because our love is written in the stars; Hudson Gray is my fate. He'll see that everything I've done is to prove that I'm his, through and through. That he has me, all of me, and all my love. Forever. No take backs.

Tattoos, my sisters and Bluebell. That's all I need. Until Trace Calhoun speeds into town in his ridiculous sports car, crop top, hot bod and womanizing ways. Did I mention he's my new mentor at the tattoo shop? Yep. Bickering, rude comments and drama aside, like every foolish female heart since the dawn of time, I fall for him. Only, Ivy Ellington won't stand for the booze and babe filled benders. Nope. He's had a life of luxury before Bluebell, being the star of his own reality show. But here, with me, his attitude doesn't work. I'll give him what he needs. I'll give him the discipline he's begging for. And he'll like it. He'll get addicted to it. Because a woman in control is what Trace needs. I'm what Trace needs. He'll see.

I will not use my jam for evil. I will not use my jam for evil. … I might use my jam for evil. My life is good. I’ve got my sisters, Juni’s Jams, and my two best friends—-what more could a girl ask for? Love. That’s what. After watching my two younger sisters fall into relationships and get married, I’ve come to realize, my life is good… but not good enough. It’s time to stop lying to myself about my two best friends. The truth? I want them. As much as I want fresh berries for my jam, I want them. There’s just a small hiccup… A darkness lives inside me. A wickedness so macabre that I’ve kept it hidden my whole life. That is, until one evening when I’m out making deliveries and come across a man. A very bad man. A man that brought that darkness out of me, leaving me no other choice but to hurt him. Badly. With no way to cover my tracks and nowhere to go, I go to the only two people who can help me… My best friends. Sterling Ford. Bluebell’s most adorable and humble garbage man. And Dash Foster, Bluebell’s hunkiest, sweetest cop. With everything on the line, I come clean to them, unsure which has me more nervous… the dark secrets I’ve been hiding or my feelings. Do they love me the way I love them? Do they love each other the way I think they do? And more than all of that, can they still love me once they learn what I’ve done and what I’ve been hiding? Can they love a bad girl who does evil, wicked things? Eternally Devoted is an interconnected standalone and the third book in the Twisted Sister series.
